10.4

Improvements

In this release, we have added support for test density and metrics at the individual file level. You can now view the number of unit tests, as well as details on skipped tests, failed tests, and test duration, from all supported coverage tools (xUnit, MsTest, and nUnit).

Additionally, we have significantly optimized memory allocation, resulting in memory usage reduction during registration.
